Genes affected
ATM (HGNC:795): (ATM serine/threonine kinase) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the PI3/PI4-kinase family. This protein is an important cell cycle checkpoint kinase that phosphorylates; thus, it functions as a regulator of a wide variety of downstream proteins, including tumor suppressor proteins p53 and BRCA1, checkpoint kinase CHK2, checkpoint proteins RAD17 and RAD9, and DNA repair protein NBS1. This protein and the closely related kinase ATR are thought to be master controllers of cell cycle checkpoint signaling pathways that are required for cell response to DNA damage and for genome stability. Mutations in this gene are associated with ataxia telangiectasia, an autosomal recessive disorder. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2010]
C11orf65 (HGNC:28519): (chromosome 11 open reading frame 65) Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of mitochondrial fission and negative regulation of protein targeting to mitochondrion. Predicted to be located in cytosol and mitochondrial outer membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Submissions by phenotype

Ataxia-telangiectasia syndrome Pathogenic:4
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 04, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser1993Argfs*23) in the ATM gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ATM are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23807571, 25614872). This variant is present in population databases (rs749049519, gnomAD 0.002%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with ataxia-telangectasia (PMID: 8845835, 17124347, 17910737, 19691550, 23454770). This variant is also known as 5979del5 or 5979delTAAAG. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 233016). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJul 12, 2022Variant summary: ATM c.5979_5983delTAAAG (p.Ser1993ArgfsX23) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251034 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.5979_5983delTAAAG (aka. 5979del5 or 5979delTAAAG) has been reported in the literature in several compound heterozygous individuals affected with Ataxia-Telangiectasia (Gilad_1996, Cavalieri_2006, Magliozzi_2006, Du_2008, Chessa_2009). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. In addition, the variant was also reported in heterozygous state in individuals affected with breast cancer, but was also found in controls (e.g. Droling_2021, via LOVD). At least one publication reported experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, and demonstrated lack of the protein product in patient derived cells from a compound heterozygous patient, who carried a truncating variant in trans (Prodosmo_2013). Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, and all laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:3
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthJan 09, 2023This variant, also referred to as 5979delTAAAG or 5979del5, deletes 5 nucleotides in exon 40 of the ATM gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been observed in the compound heterozygous state in individuals affected with autosomal recessive ataxia-telangiectasia (PMID: 8845835, 17124347, 17910737, 19691550, 23454770), indicating that this variant contributes to disease. This variant has also been observed in individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 28779002), colorectal cancer (PMID: 34761457), or melanoma (PMID: 32325837). This variant has been identified in 2/251034 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of ATM function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneKor MSAJan 01, 2020This variant is a five base pair deletion from exon 40 of the ATM mRNA, causing a frameshift after codon 1993 and this creates a premature translational stop signal 23 amino acid residues later. This is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Truncating variants in ATM are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23807571, 25614872). This variant is also known as 5979del5 or 5979delTAAAG in the literature and has been described in several individuals affected with ataxia-telangectasia (PMID: 8845835, 17124347, 17910737, 19691550, 23454770) and in individuals undergoing panel testing for hereditary syndrome (PMID: 31159747). The mutation database ClinVar contains entries for this variant (Variation ID: 233016). -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsFeb 22, 2023The c.5979_5983delTAAAG pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 39 of the ATM gene, results from a deletion of 5 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 5979 to 5983, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.S1993Rfs*23). This mutation was first reported in conjunction with a second truncating ATM mutation in an Italian patient with classic ataxia-telangiectasia (Gilad S et al. Hum. Mol. Genet. 1996 Apr; 5(4):433-9). Additionally, this alteration has been reported in at least one subject in a study of 13087 breast cancer cases and 5488 control individuals from the United Kingdom and in an individual referred for next generation sequencing based on personal and/or family history from Greece, Romania or Turkey (Decker B et al. J. Med. Genet. 2017 11;54:732-741; Tsaousis GN et al. BMC Cancer. 2019 Jun;19:535). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
